You can see the Marathon symbol. I'm wondering if this has to do with a possible connection between the Halo series and the Marathon series.

I thought that it most likely wasn't a connection, I just thought it was cool that Bungie put it in.

The Marathon architecture is very like Halo's architecture. Also, you will find the marathon symbol in the the backgroud of the title in the main menu and in the rear of 343 Guilty spark's "eye". Not to mention on Captain Keye's uniform. There are many references to Marathon within Halo. That's just Bungie.

Many of the weapon names got recycled from Marathon over into Halo.
